Isn't this true only for UNION ALL cases and not for inheritance child relations (at least that is what seems to be mentioned in comments for translated_vars in AppendRelInfo)? If that is right, then I think there shouldn't be a problem w.r.t parallel plans even if adjust_appendrel_attrs() translate Vars into non-Vars, because for UNION ALL it seems parent rels rtekind is RTE_SUBQUERY and we consider such rels as parallel unsafe (see set_rel_consider_parallel()). So it doesn't matter even if child rels target list contains any parallel unsafe expression, as we are not going to create parallel paths for such relations. With Regards, Amit Kapila.
